the third goal: Run for Water
http://bamakopcv.blogspot.com/2010/06/run-for-water.html
Thursday, June 3, 2010. In April, there was an international event that was coordinated by Live Earth called: Run for Water. I volunteered to organize the run here in Bamako. To raise awareness of water crises and shortages throughout the developing world. Specifically, potable water issues. Run for Water 1: People getting in. A circle for warm-ups before the run. Run for Water 2: Post run- with one of the. Runners wearing the shirt I designed for the event. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I'm a peac...

QKellie Explains It All. Je ne sais pas. Here's the thing about Doctor Who. Oct 3rd, 2011 at 2:15 PM. Spoilers for Saturdays season finale. Feminism in Fandom: A Discussion Question. Sep 9th, 2009 at 10:52 AM. Both have subject matter based on aspects of Mormonism, why does the reimagined BSG. And, honestly, even the original version, for its time) treat female characters so much better than the Twilight. And considering that the latter is written by a woman, that is further surprising. Can a religion be...

the third goal: Segou Music Festival
http://bamakopcv.blogspot.com/2010/03/segou-music-festival.html
Saturday, March 13, 2010. Time is passing much too quickly for me these days. For one, I'm staying pretty busy. We're teaching, which always makes time go by faster, but more than that, I've actually managed to travel a little bit, too. It's certainly re-energized me. Music Festival 1: Pirogue Race. Music Festival 2: Getting ready for a night of music! Music Festival 3: Standing in the water and enjoying a great show! After we managed to work our way to the front of the crowd (the crowds were huge, btw!

the third goal: June 2009
http://bamakopcv.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 19, 2009. I feel like I'm making significant progress. One of the things I've been working hard to do is acquire books to use with my students (so if you're reading this and you have access to textbooks- especially high school or college literature and history textbooks, you should contact me). I've managed to get my old school system, Beavercreek City Schools. Badalabougou Hash: Proof that I actually run in these things. Mali v Ghana 1: On the way to the game. Of course, I'm still studying ...

the third goal: February 2009
http://bamakopcv.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 19, 2009. Living in Bamako as an Education Peace Corps Volunteer. My life is certainly far different than any other volunteer's in country right now. That's not necessarily bad, it's simply fact. I'm unable to travel, to take "vacations" as it were. I don't mind that. Not really. However, when we're on strike, it'd be nice to see other parts of Mali. But it's not possible. Prior to the 4 weeks of classes we did have, there were strikes that had prevented the fall term to start. Yes...

the third goal: So, WAIST (finally)
http://bamakopcv.blogspot.com/2010/05/so-waist-finally.html
Tuesday, May 25, 2010. So, WAIST (finally). WAIST (West African Invitational Softball Tournament) was a smashing good time. We travelled by bus for the 30 hour drive there, which was definitely taxing. Luckily, I was surrounded by friends, and we were able to keep ourselves amused (when we weren’t sleeping). Bus: Ready to Go. Softball 1: Tinti proving some of us know how to play the game. Softball 2: Group Pic. Of the other teams, There were several PC Senegal teams, a couple of PC Gambia teams, one mixe...

the third goal: January 2010
http://bamakopcv.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 6, 2010. For everyone who was staying at my house (there were a lot of people). For dinner, we made mashed potatoes and gravy, cooked some green beans and carrots, and bought rotisserie chicken. Desert was my new specialty: peanut butter fudge (which is something that I’ve really enjoyed making recently) and a key lime pie that another houseguest made. Tubani-So Christmas Party - with hot chocolate! 1 day to grade all of these! In all, life is good over here in Mali, and 2010 is alread...
